It's a yummy low fat, low carb recipe that's easy and delicious!
Perdernales River Chili (LBJ’s chili)
President Lyndon Johnson loved to eat chili, but after a heart attack he was put on a fat free diet. If you use venison instead of beef, the chili is virtually fat free. It has only 6 grams carbs, 20 grams fat (with extra lean ground beef) , and 48 grams of protein. If you add a can of chili beans to it, my DH will like
4 lbs cubed or ground venison or beef 2 tbsp chili power (or package of chili seasoning)
1 large onion, chopped 1 10 oz cans Rotel tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, minced (original with green chilis)
1 tsp ground oregano 2 cups hot water
1 tsp cumin seeds hot pepper sauce to taste
Sear meat, onions and garlic in large, heavy boiler or skillet until lightly browned. Add seasonings. tomatoes. and hot water. Bring to a boil. Lower heat; simmer about 1 hour.
As chili cooks, skim off fat. Serves 8.
Enjoy!
